SmartCat The Ultimate 32-in Sisal Cat Scratching Post

I thought at first that I wasted my money. She was afraid of it .Wouldn't even use it when I rubbed cat nip on it. I layed it down on the floor every day and she started jumping on it and started scratching on it. This went on for about a week or so. I started putting it back in the upright position and she started using it and now loves it. I can now throw her short beat up one away!

We lured a stray cat with a clipped ear into our house and he immediately started scratching a rug and door mat. I observed him outside sharpening his claws on a tree, so he quickly learned to use this vertical post. It is heavy enough that it does not move when he uses it. We removed the area rug and door mat he was scratching and so far he is only using the post. He still does not have unrestricted access to the rest of the house.

This shipped in October and I've had it in my house since then. I've tried everything I can, but my cat just won't scratch it. :( It is nicely made though, despite a few areas where I could imagine my cat's claws would get stuck where the stitching meets/juts out.

I had this scratching post, and it lasted consisten use by 3 cats for YEARS. It was finally time to get a new one, and I was so happy to see this was on Chewy. I don't put this thing fully upright, I lie it on it's side, because my cats prefer scratching horizontally rather than vertically. Plus it acts as a convenient ramp to get up to the bed. This thing is very sturdy, and doesn't slide around when they try and scratch, which bothers me about a lot of those cardboard scratching posts. Plus with how well built it is they feel safe and steady on it too. Definitely worth the price. It lasts for many years, and is a good quality product.

Our cats completely destroyed one of these because they liked it so much. It is really nice, like a piece of furniture! It is so stable, you can place something on the flat top and it will not fall off while the cats are scratching. We loved our first one so much, we bought two more just to have a spare for the future. They were on sale too! Your cats and your wallet will love this item!

I have purchased two of these scratching posts. My cats have used and loved one so much that I decided to get a second one for upstairs. I like that the base is wide, it feels really solid. I’m not worried about it tipping over when my cats climb it. Not to mention it looks nice in my living room. The scratching surface is durable and lasts a long time. Very satisfied!

I got a brand new couch, and one of my rescue cats started scratching on it. To deter her from scratching I did research on the best scratching posts, and this Smart Cat post was one of the best! I didn't know it was important for cats to have tall scratching posts to fully stretch. Both of my cats love it, and they no longer scratch the couch!

This was gifted to me from a friend whose cat never used it. It's been 4 years and it's finally time to replace. My Cat Son LOOOOOVES this thing. It also goes well with my apartment and kind of blends in which I love. Pet accessories get real tacky real quick, but this one has stood the test of time. Its well made and doesn't look cheap. Highly recommend this to any cat parent.

Well made. Easy to put together. Worth the money if you have cats that enjoy running up a column and perching. Unfortunately, they still insist on scratching upholstery anyway, so that one of the reasons I bought this has not come to fruition. Wish the kittens and I could really talk.

I just bought my second one, my cats love this scratcher so much. I’ve had one for about a year, and it barely shows any wear. The cats can really get their claws into this material, and it’s so heavy duty that it doesn’t move at all while they scratch. Thumbs up for sure!
